IN THE ICAHN

CAROLYN MURPHY turned up to the opening of the Icahn Stadium in New York this weekend to highlight the need for children to exercise. "I was a swimmer for 11 years," she told WWD. "Having that physical activity and the effect it has on you emotionally as a child is so important And for inner-city children, it's hard because they live in the city, so far them to exercise and have a facility that provides this space for them and the camaraderie is important in their development." Featuring a 400-metre track, fitness and exercise rooms and a dance studio, The Icahn complex is expected to boost New York's Olympic bid. (April 25 2005, AM)
